Specifies the minimum number of minutes that procedure-correlation identifiers (PCIDs) are cached after VTAM® processes a network search request. Cached PCIDs are used to recognize previously processed search requests, thereby preventing duplicate processing.

Note that if you set the CACHETI value too low, duplicate searching can result. Conversely, if you set the value too high, storage use can increase because of VTAM retaining the control blocks used to save the PCIDs.
